Hacker-Pschorr Münchener Gold

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Munich, Germany

Clear straw body with a small white head. Sweet, grassy nose with honey and dough. The flavor is lightly sweet, very lightly bitter with honey, watery-grainy malt and grass. Medium/light body is thin, slightly watery with moderate carbonation.

Bottle from Mt. Washington Ice & Beer. Poured clear golden color with a large frothy white head that mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate grassy hoppy aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium balanced flavor with a light bitter finish of moderate duration. My expectations where met and went well with watching the BCS FINAL.

Super clear bright and solid whitened gold color with some softly effervesced bubbles making there up thru the bright gold body. Slimming but strong, starchy white capping of foam creates a quick top to then leave a trace skim and a thin collar. Lacing is drippy with a few spots sticking and a couple casts of sporatic blobs. Wonderfully clean, crisp, and brightly sweet with a fresh berry scent with a slight underscoring of cystal malt grain, trace hop leaf, and a pinch of soft lemon air. Flavors are quite solid, a well deserving showcase for the style. Well tendered sweetness is clean, crisp, very well-rounded; berryish tone mixed with a stint of bread dough sweetness, no crusts please, and a nice touch and pulse of real grain goodness that lasts very well across the palate. Slight starchy dry finish with bready leftovers, airy lemon, and a puff of leafy hops. A nearly perfect taster for the style. Body is just shy of medium, but the length is outstanding and actually seemd to gain a bready girth as it goes. Outstanding! The crispness is set forth with a gleem of short rounded snappyness. Then the sweetness rolls in from a malt load of fun twisted berry breads and lemon puff chewy cookies. Delish!! A near perfect Helles Lager if there ever was one. Drinkable? You bet it is. Unwholly drinkable really. Yummy, yum, yum!

Nice golden lager color, decient head retention. Nice malty taste but nothing I went and bragged to anyone about...was a good beer, had nice hoppy flavor and aroma. Would drink again...Had this in a German resteraunt in glass.

Enoug foam to piss you off, nice golden clear yellow color. Smells like a weak heineken. Tastes the same.

I enjoyed this brew. Golden color with a slight hazy hue. Crisp and flavorful with a nice hoppy finish. Very drinkable where you can enjoy more than one!

Swingtop from Bulko. Bright, spritzy and golden with a silky head of suds. Buttery vanilla-malty aroma with a hint of hop grassiness. Sweet and grainy. Cardboard and pine as it warms. Another well-constructed malty lager it’s impossible to really dislike or get excited about.....

Tap at Laschet’s in Chicago. This was avery pleasant lager, though not as biscuity as I would like from a Helles. Still, nice malt character backed up by clean, non-astringent hops.
